We’re excited to welcome Optimum Experiences Outdoor Adventures as a new supporter of the Duke of Ed NSW Public Schools Pilot. As an in-kind supporter of the program, they recently delivered an engaging professional learning session for teachers participating in the program. The session supported the ongoing development of staff involved and built confidence in leading Adventurous Journeys. We greatly appreciate this contribution.
